Bus Bookings for Trail Run Australia Snowy Mountains
We are so looking forward to welcoming a record number of athletes to Trail Run Australia and the spectacular Snowy Mountains in 2024.
Entries this year have far exceeded all expectations which is very humbling, however this means we have needed to implement some contingency plans for parking and travel to the start to ensure the event flows smoothly for you.
In preparation for your event we’ve included some details below for each course about:
- Travel to the Start

- Parking

WHY DO I NOW HAVE TO BOOK A BUS TO THE START FOR THE TRA21?
Due to higher than anticipated entries for the TRA21 course it has been necessary for safety, and for traffic management purposes to limit vehicle access to the start at Thredbo River Picnic Area.
Unfortunately, the available area for vehicles at the start line is limited and with entry numbers for the TRA21 far exceeding previous years it has been necessary to make the difficult decision that no vehicles will be able to access the start point on the morning of the event.
All TRA21 runners will be required to book the bus from Lake Crackenback Resort and Spa to the start.
We understand that this will be disappointing for some participants who won’t have the option to drive to the start, and friends and family won’t be able to watch the start. However, with the current high number of entrants, restricting vehicle access to buses only is essential to prevent congestion in the picnic area and, more crucially, on Kosciuszko Road.
We have worked to keep bus costs to an absolute minimum and all TRA21 entrants will need to book the bus online for $10 per person.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to ensure a safe event for everyone.
